Paris, Jane 29, 1866. Bo rope 1b now in flames fighting on several points bas already begun in the north, in the south, in the east, In the west. The great slaughter, however, began on the 24th. More than (10,000 men were sent to their last home. Hv task as correspondent is now very much simplified, as I have now but to write you what Is told me iTom Germany and Italy. The Italian forces, the first who smelt gun powder, are divided in four parts 100,000 men, commanded by Victor Emanuel, form the army of the Mincio. Cialdlni, at the head of 98,000, is on the banks of tbe Po. Garibaldi, witn 30,000 volunteers, is marching towards the Tyrol. At the same time the Italian fleet, which, tevery powerful (under the command of Ad miral Pereano), is cruising la the Adriatic, and will commence operations against Venice. It is the army of tbe Mincio which has been the first to pay its debt to the country. TBI BATTLE OF CUSTOZZA. Victor Emanuel, who had crossed the Mincio on the 23d inst., was beaten by the Austrlans on the 24th, the anniversary of the battle of Sol ferino. The battle of Custozza proves that Victor Emanuel is a poor general, and that the Italian? are not, as it was thought, only good to make to-nor singers and maccaronl eaters. I have already said the army of the Mincio wag divided into three corps. The 1st Corps, com manded by General Duraudo, marched towards Pcschiera; whilst the 2d and 3d, under the com mand of Victor Emanuel, advanced, the 2d In the direction ot Goito, tho 3d in tnat ot Mantua The Austiians, under the command of the Arch duke Albrecht, Usued out of Verona to the num ber of 80,000, and 20,000 attacked the 2d and 3d Corps of the Italian army, Victor Emanael thinking he had the whole Austrian army before him. 00,000 Austrtans fell upon the corps com manded by Durando, who tor more than twelve hours had to contend with the enemy. Durand and three of his generals were wounded, us well as Prince Amadeus, Duca d'Aoeta, son of the King. 20,000 Italians hors de combat, 12,000 Austrians ditto this is the result of the battle of Cug-i07-A. This spot is fatal to the House ot Savoy, lor It was in this place that Victor Emanuel's father, Charles Albert, was defeated byRadetsky a few days before the battle of Novara. However, the consequences of the battle of Custozza have not been so bad lor the army of Victor F-miinuel. He was, it is true, obliged to 6x069 the Mincio, but the Italians have shown the world that they are good soldiers. , The effect produoed by the battle of Custozza is more or less singular. In Paris funds went up, more especially the. Italian, which had not i been so high for a very Ion? iltne. Ouf financial men are Austrian inclined. On the arrival of the news oi the deteat of the Italians, several of them demanded permission to illuminate to cele fci ate the event. Monsieur Pietre, however, de clined. Do those gentlemen remember that the Italians are our allies, and that fifteen thousand sons of France sleep on ihe plains of Solferino? TUB CAMPAIGN IN GERM INT has opened favorably for the arras of Austria. It is no w pretty certain that the Prince Royal 1 Prussia has been beaten by General Benedek at Nachod and Neustadt.ln Bohemia, about half way between the Prussian town of Glatz and the Austrian lovtress oi Josephstadt. Tho battle is said to have lasid two days. Though -we have as jet no particulars of the same, there appears to be no doubt but that the Prussians have asked for an armistice, which has been refused by the Austrian General. The tactics sf Benedek seem to be to separate the Prussian armies of Silesia and Bohemia; that of the Prus sians is evidently to attack Prague, but the Aus krian general is doing all he can to prevent this, as the consequences might be dangerous tor him. Thus the war has begun in earnest; who can tell when it will end ? Will the Emperor be able to maintain an attentive neutrality? I doubt it. Some fear a coalition against France will be the result of this, should Austria be triumphant. The hatred of France is so great in Germany at tbe present moment that all internal dissensions would cease were the Teutonio Governments to threaten the existence ot France. PAIL OF THB BCBBBLL-GLAD8TONB CABIN BT. Those Frenchmen who see further than their aosee feel very anxious at the change of Minis try In England, for it Is generally believed that they have no very great affection for the Sphynx of the Tnileries, and that their sympathies are with Hapsburg. This sufficiently explains the hesitation of the Emperor, who now is afraid of the ghost he bas raised. No advantage can accrue to Fiance from this war. The camp of Chalons is full ot troops. The Lyons array is completed. Thirty-five thousand men are ready to leave Algeria. However, nothing is done, as the public opinion is against any war which might be the menus of turning our allies into enemies. It is reported that Prince Napoleon is furious at seeing his father, as he says, leit in the lurch, and has beveral times blamed his cousin to his face lor not buckling to and flying to the rescue. Perhaps our Emperor will make up his mind as to what he will do when the members of the Corps LegUlatirhve closed their sittinire. It bas been reported in Paris .hat Napoleon III bas informed the Austrian Ambassador that he could not consent to the Austrians re-entering Lom bard;, which would be a violation of the treaty ot Villafranca. We must, however, remark that It was not the Austrian! who struck first. The Austrian bulli tins are no jv more modest In their tone than they were in 1859. Halt of Europe in flames, the fields in want of hands for the harvest and burned up, the cholera this to the result of the policy ot the sovereigns of the Continent. In Italy, for instance. Victor Emanuel, who is, alter all, but a courageous Zouave, but who Is unfit to command an army, should be suffer another defeat, will have to abdicate. William of Prussia is no better. He has began a war contrary to the wishes of bis people, and there V no seeing where it will end. A private letter from Elbeleld and Barmen (two great manufac turing towns in the Rhinish provinces) states that everj thing is at a stand-still. Hundreds have been called away to Join the Land wear, and those who remain at home are out of vjrk. THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, '. Bpaln bas again given us a pronwrw iamento. Two regiments of artillery of the barracks called Bt. Giles, broke oat In open mutiny on the 23d Inst. There was fighting In the streets of Madrid during the whole of the day. The end of this sad trneuXt was, that the Government bad the best of it. Some hundreds have been sent to prison, and there await their trial. Prim, who, on hearing of the Insurrection, left Paris for Catalonia, has returned here. Should he fall into the hands of O'Donnell, he will have every chance of being shot. O'Donnell is a brave man, but in no way tender hearted. I have another incident to note, and I shall then have done with the political part of my letter. For the last week Le Constitution!, La Fatrie, and Le Fays, three political paprs, have been attacking the tfancho and the Orelot, two Bel gian papers, which they say are the apologists of regicide. They complain that our neighbors are too tolerant, and that steps should be taken to prevent the institutions of the French empire from being Insulted. Our official papers attach too much importance to what such papers as the Saneho and the Grelot say, for they are read but by very few peTtons of respectability in Belgium. However, our neighbors who cnioy such free dom ought to be on the look out not to offend, as a casus belli is soon trumped up when neces sary. The Cabinet ot Brussels has, we hear, taken the necessary measures to stop these papers. Politics, and uothiug but politics, so thit Parisian life is now uninteresting and monoto nous. The greatest pleasure of the day seems to be the perusal of the papers. Tae only novelty ot the season is THE ROMAN BOUSB which was bought of Prince Napoleon, and is now opened to the public. We have now an opportunity of hearing what Oriental music is like, as a Turkish orchestra adds to the charm of the scene. The cost of admission is only one franc, and the Roman house affords a cool re treat during the present warm weather, the thermometer 84 degrees Fahrenheit. TUB DRAMAS OF TUB A8SIZE COURTS. As the majority of our sensational drama theatres are now closed, those who cannot live without "emotions" need only frequent our Assize Courts, where they will rind ample means of satisfying these "cravings." The affair Phi lippe has attracted crowded houses of late. Philippe, the hideous "Quasimodo," whose mama it was to .throttle poor unfortunate girls, has been condemned to death, and will be guillo tined in a few days. Brest, too, bas also had its sensational trial. Eicht ruffians who had mutinied on board the Foederis Area, and killed captain and mate, were a few days ago tried at the Maritime Tribunal of Brest. Four of them were sentenced to death. The French papers will give you the details of this trial in extenso. I will, therefore, no longer dwell on the matter. NW WORK BT ALEXANDRE DUMAS. It is a iong time since we have had anything from the pen of the son of tho gf6at Alexandre. the author of "Monte Curlsto." Young Dumas, the well-know n author 0? "Le Demi Monde," has i u st p u bli he d a n e w rom ance, entitl e d " L' A tTair e Clemencaux," which will, I have no doubt, be as popular as his "Dame aux Camelias," etc. TUB HOUSE OF ORLEANB IN MOURNINO. The Orleans family has just had to deplore the death ot the young Due de Guise, born at. Twickenham in 1854. lie was the second son of the Due d'Aunjule. A HORRID CHAFER OF CRIME. Twenty-three Persons Murdered Seriatim. From the London Globe. On the 11th of January lust a middle-aged wluow lady in Paris, Madam Midy, by profession a paiuter, narrowly escaped being murdered. A man who bad lately been in her house as a work man in tbe employment ot a lrame-max-r whom she patronized, was tbe intended murderer, and he had doubtless been tempted to the deed in order to rob bis victim ot some small but valuable paintings which had been intrusted to her by a Polish prince. fcHe called under pretense ot looking lor a tool which he had accidentally lelt behind. Not finding it, he drew iroin his pocket a bolster cover, askiug the lady it it did not belong to her; and, as she turned away, annoyed by his questions, he took the opportunity to throw the cloth over her head so asi to cover it, at the same time placing one hand on her nee and tbe other on her mouth, smiling the linen do n her throat so as to stifle her cries. She had been able to scream a Utile, however, and ber screams, the noise ot the scutlle, and the sound of ber tall on the floor, brought a brother painter tbe Sieur Vauchelet who was in an adloining apartment, to her assistance. 1 The prisoner, thus interrupted, coolly walked away, merely saying that the lady was ill; but he waj fol io wed and arrested Tbe police soon ldentided him as the man who was "wanted" lor a horrid murder committed a lew daja beiore, and a little more investigation proved their prisoner, Joseph Philippe by name, to be one ot those great criminals of tbe Dumollard type, who commit murder bv wholesale, partly trom pure blood-thirstiness of nature, and partly for the plunder and outrage of their victims. His trial has Just taken ptuce under one of tne most formidable aotes d'aacusalion which the lnee' nulty of French lawyers has constructed. The prisoner's appearance and antecedent's quite correpuna witn tne last epoca or bis nistory. He is a short, thick-set man. with blank hair. closely-cut beard and moustache, low ion-head. diep-ketejes, thick lips, and generally a ferocious look, although dressed in the garb ot a well-to-do WOIJtman. corn in lH.il. ho that hA is th rr.e.flva years of age, he was taken tor the military service in 1852, condemned in 1856 to a year's imprison ment tor misconduct, and enrolled soon alter in one ot tnose terrible battalions d'Atrique into which the scoundreU ot the French axmv are orulted. He returned to Paris in 1861, and has since Deeu iu uumeruus situations as groom, cook, eeneral servant, and warnhnimo ri k AjfiAn . ger, but stHjing lotiir in none on account of his drucken babiw. The idea of living by murder and robbery appears to have orlcim.te.1 in th necessities ot h s poverty when out of employ ment; and his system is novel, as the first attempt to tune uuvuuiuve ui a certain feature in our social lite. The murderer, two years ago at Florence, victimized lodcriug-bouse keepers' whom he lo and out as a faineant lorloer anA whom he was enabled to murd?r on account of ineir loneiy posuiou. tiouepu ruuippe selected for his operations the class oi unfortunates whose degradation and isolation, and the pecu liarities of their miserable trade, expose in a high degree t the danger of assassination. The Waterloo-road murder, and the more recent murder ot Emma Jackson, exemplify among ourselves what these dangers amount to. But the prisoner is the Mi-si to have seen in tbe tacts the chance ot a living. From the evidence now obtained, it Is certain that he did act on svstem. More than two years ago be revealed hi secret to one ot these females in the weakness ot intoxication. "I love women well," be said, "and I do for them well. 1 nut! their mouths and cut their throats Wait a bit, and you will hear me talked about." What passed lor crnra lest has become a too hoi rid reality. Beveral unfortunates bad per ished In Paris since 1)461, strangled, or with throats cut, but it is only within the last two years that c6s have beeu found in which there is proof against the prinoner. . There are three distinct cases, one ol them a donble murder, in which the Infant of one of his victims was also killed, and the circumstances are much alike in all. Thret days before his apprehension he accosted, at 11 o'clock in the evening, in the Rue de Vilie l'Eveque, a girl named Marie Victolre Bodeux: soon atterwards he was seen entering tbe building on that street in which were ber apartments, and a quarter of an honr later he was observed to leave by an old man who lived in the house, and who wanted to see the girl. This man, entering her apartment, discovered her on the floor, with her throat fiightiully gashed, and tbe marks of blood-stained lingers on the drawers, and their contents, which, as well as the mattress on the bed, had been rummaecd for valu ables. It was found that the murdered woman's furte. containing 3, and several articles of ewelry, had been stolen: and, luckily, there were found in the prisoners possession sulllclent articles to identity him. Beiore leaving he had had time to wash his bands in a basin which stood upon the dresglng-table in the apartment. The two other murders with which he is con nected were committed In tbe spring of 1HG4. One morning in April that year, an unlortunatc, named Julie Roberts, not haviug appeared since the eveninz ot the day beiore, was found in her apartment in the Rue St. Joseph with her throat cut In a similar lashion to that of toe girl Bo deux her packets and the whole apartment bearing marks of hasty rifling, and a handbasin in like manner marked with blood stains. The prisoner is said to have takes with him a hand kerchief which has been identified an the de ceased's property, and he in proved to have been spending money freely at the time, although he had but newly entered on an employ ment alter a term of idleness, and had yetreceived no wages. His strange demeanor and agita tion at the time have also been remembered against him. The most horrible affair of all was the roiudcr in November following, in the Rue St. Maiguente, of a woman named Mge aud her two-.ycars-oid. .On Hunday morning in that month workmen passing to their work ob served for a moment a woman in hur chemise at a window hoarsely crying out and gesticula tine strangely; but, thiukine she was arunk or mad, they passed on. She was neither drunk nor mad, but in the fatal erasp of a murderer. Nor did her cries bring the assistance ot neighbors. Half an hour alter a man resembling the prisoner was seen to descend from the house and depart, leaving the key ot the apartment on the landing, lhcre was some suspicion, and on an entrance beicg made, the two bodies were found hor ribly mutilated and bruised the woman hav ing plainly gone tarough a tremendous struggle before her antagonist succeeded. There were the same marks of rifling left as in the ofier cases, showing the same autnor. The prisoner was not only identified by those who saw him leaving, but another unfortunatej w.iom he had addressed the same eveping, had beeu so lrightened at his looxs that Bhe would not take him home, and hud seen hitn afterwards going home wHh the deceased. She wa not tbe only woman of her class who testifies to having been saved trom probable murder by a similar fear. The strange-1 fact of all remains, and that is the horror of the prisoner at his own crimes, nis sieep was dis turbed by Irightt il dreams. After tbe last men tioned murder those in toe bouse where he lodged heard him raising frgbiful cries, as if some bloody apparition had appeared beiore him. He plunged into deeper debauches to drown the turojs ot h's conscience. Cue would almost lave expected that so wholesale a crlral- nal would have been more hardened. Such is one of the most frightful chapters of crime taat have lately been recorded. The prisoner, we learn, is not to eecapo the last penalty ol the law, although it is considered that the 18G4 cases are not quite established against him. Even a rench lury has tound it impossible to give him the benefit ot extenuating circumstances. w e must also remark: that tbe atiair is bv no means creditable to the French police. There are said to have been twenty-three cases since 1861, but they all failed to find out the mur derers, or rather murderer, since the records all showed a striking similarity ot method. Extraordinary Decline in Wheat. Within the past twenty-tour hours the wheat market in mis city has experienced a most extraordinary decline ol twenty-two cents to twenty-seven cents per bushel. Ou Tuesday, No. 1 regular spring wheat was sold at Sl88tSiSl"J0, aud yes terday It fell as low as $l'ti0 closing dull and nominal nt $165. 1 his decline in prices is tbe result wholly of excessive speculation. A promi nent operator some time Mnce purchased the entire stocfe ot wheat, and two or three hundred thousand busheU beside tor future delivery. In order completely to "corner" the sellers, h. adopted tne somewhat novel expedient oi sell ing cargoes " tree n board" to shippers at ten cents to thirteen cents below the market price, lor lots in store. In this way the stock was reduced quite materially, nnd the sellers were forced to settle at the buyers own price. This being accomplished, he threw tne balance of bis wheat upon the market, and broke it down. Vhwago Tribune, Ihursday. Horbb-flesu in Pari8. The Prefect of Police in fans nas issued certain regulations under which tbe sale of horse-flesh is permitted in tho city. The animals are to be killed in public slaughter houses, in the presence of competent government melius, atter a previous examina tion: the meat is to be stamped before its re moval, which is to be effected in close vehicles. nnd tbe shops which are allotted tor its sale will be indicated by special signs. Any restaurant selliog horse-flesh without clearly announcing the fact, or who shall fraudulently mix it with other meat, will be liable to punishment under tbe penal code. Convict Life in France A man has iust left the hulks ot Toulon atter passing thirty-tive years there. He was condemned for homicide to hard labor for life in March, 1831, by the Ccnrt of Assize of the Calvados, and entered the hulks the same month. Different commutations of punishment which be obtained have reduced ms captivity to iniriy-nve years, ue is tne last convict there that was branded on the shoulder with the letters T. P. (tramux publics), as since tbe Revolution of July that portion of tbe pun isbment has been abolished. "Another Curious Cavb. A singular cave in Cambridge county, Georgia, is reported, with an orince so small that no person can enter it. Through this orifice a strong current of air is alternately blcwn out aud drawn in without any apparent cause, and regulated by no known law." Tbe. above paragraph is travelling the rounds. Wonder il the orifice referred to is not tbe hole in the man's face. A Family Reunion. A family celebration of great rarity has just been celebrated at Olinutz, Moiavia, iu honor of M. Wnunll, a lauded pro prietor and his wile, whose umted ages amounted to iust two hundred years, tbe husband being one hundted and three and the wife ninetv-seven. Thev were married on tho 25th of May, 1791. and celebrated the seventy fifth anniversary of their union. Ladies Decorated. The Countess de Pour tales has just received from the Dowager Queen ot Havana the cross oi the oroor ot Theresa, This order was founded bv the Do wager Ouecn herself In 1827, and the cross bas already been conterred upon several French ladies ot dis tinction, among others Madame Drouyn do t,huys, wife of tbe French Minister for Foreign Attains. Proportion of Good Preachers. Mr. Spur geon. in a speech at the recent anniversary of t he Bapt st Union, London, made the rather astound ing statement that "you could get tboutone good preacher out of every eight students, and that nothing could change the proportion." It u doubtful whether other professions secure a greater proportion of really "good" material.
